They made Aqualung as a description of the British culture.

Snot running down his nosGreasy fingers
Wearing shabby clothes

Eyeing little children with bad intent.

Your typical Londoner going for a stroll.

It was inspired by homeless people on the Thames Embankment.

The homeless people in Bolton are mostly Romanians. Thanks to the EU, we're importing homeless people.

It was inspired by creepy Brits. Ian Anderson explained it quite extensively shortly after JT had success with the album. Homeless people didn't enter into it.

Britain receives no subsidies from the EU. It is a net contributor to the EU budget and any money she "gets from the EU" is just some of her own money that she's being paid back.

The EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), which France's inefficient farmers benefit from, is detrimental to many poor nations.

What you need to realise is that most British farmers voted to LEAVE the EU, as they know they'll be better off out.



Rubbish. The British agricultural industry has long been the most efficiantt in Europe and, indeed, a great many farming innovations started in Great Britain. This is the country of the Agricultural Revolution.

I don't know why I have to keep on pointing out things to you that you should know. But here is the reality of agricultural subsidies in the UK.

And England might have begun the Agricultural Revolution, but that was 300 years ago and nations like the US and Canada have long since caught up with and passed her.

Wow, if Britain's agricultural industry has long been the most efficient in Europe, then Europe's agri-industries must be a friggin' mess.
When subsidies make up 55% of a farmer's income, something needs to change. Particularly when the Queen herself and some of the lesser Royalty also receive the subsidy for lands they own.
